Saturday it was fairly cold but I trundled down to the

library to pick up some books by A. R. Ammons.

First I passed  the front door rabbit who often sits bum

against the spruce at the foot of our front stairs.

Then I looked to see how my neigbours gardens

had fared in the new snow. It was one of those

days when I had a long to do list and no ambition. 

I still have a long to do list.

" The burdens of the world
on my back
lighten the world
not a whit while
removing them greatly
decreases my specific
gravity"
